Section six. Complementary information

six.3) Additional information

Please note that the annual value of these contracts are subject to Scottish Government social care uplifts, therefore the values may change and it may impact the overall maximum value of the framework. It is a mandatory requirement of this Framework Agreement that a prompt payment clause is present in all Contracts used in the delivery of the requirements. This ensures payment of sub-contractors at all stages of the supply chain within 30 days and includes an obligation to provide a point of contact for sub-contractors to refer to in the case of payment difficulties. This will require active monitoring of payment performance as well as the provision of evidence and reports to the Council on request or as contractually scheduled.
